Volks Waiting Room v3!

Sep 9, 2011

    1. No... Hahahha... XDDD No Peach Pit parts for my girls! They already have huge bossoms.
       
    2. MeliCat - Thanks! She still needs a wig and eyes, so I'm agonizing over those right now as I hate to order and it not work out.

      Fransyung - What? No peach love? :3

      I really want to see the Peach part in person, as I can't picture anything even larger than shapely L bust as far as sewing clothes.
       
    3. I'm waiting my third FCS in my life ! This is the first that i was alone to make myself for the FCS (excepted the support of my friend who is come with me) !

      So i'm waiting FCS F-45 from Tenshi no Sato (Kyoto in Japan) ^^ ! With my special request face-up (i have understand all ! Sugoiiiiiiiiiiiiiii) ! I am so happy !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
       
    4. When you do an FCS, can you request the face up to your liking? To make the doll unique? ^^
       
    5. Yes, FCS does include a custom faceup done according to the specifications you give Volks. Both of the ones I did through them turned out pretty amazing and really surprised me since I generally don't like Volks faceups all that much.
       
    6. That's nice to know... >.< Do you give them specific instructions? How about us who order from overseas through an agent? Maybe sending a picture or two? >.> Maybe I should ask this in the FCS thread... (_ _) Sorry...
       
    7. I have give my instruction + a picture modifier by photoshop and my pencil on the pic XD !! Like that, i have what i want ! but, it is more diffucult if you want eyeslash in or out, sad or happy, freckles or not ! ! where is the thread of FCS ? i haven't seen it OO ! please :3

      i haven't used an agent ! By myself, it is better lol !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! like i am really sure to have and be specifique !!!!! i can check what is only sato or not ! !

      I am very hurry !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
       
    8. You can give them as specific as you want instructions and include photo examples of faceups for reference as well as give them colour samples if you have specific colours in mind. If you order through an agent, it would be up to your agent to convey your faceup instructions to Volks. My first FCS doll all I told them was to make him look like Cloud and gave a few pics of Cloud. He turned out A LOT better than the second FCS I did with more specific instructions using faceup examples. Also, your faceup examples should be of Volks dolls. You would think that would be a no brainer but...

      They'll also paint dolls like LE's past, so you could say get an F01 with a Kurumi style faceup.
       
    9. Frans: But they are so fun to squish! I want a DD some day just to put the part on~ >w< Alna is my favorite DD, I want to play with your doll collection, you have so many favorites!XD

      Macaron: I love ordering wigs! DenverDoll just got a shipment of Leeke wigs if you like that company and shipping would be quick. ^^

      aishiteru: Oh I love the F45, congrats, I can't wait to see her! Did you like doing FCS in person at Sato? ^w^
       
    10. Melicat : i like if it is for me XD ! it is long and not really funny ! It was for me so i can explain more what i like ! I can be specifique ! If it is for someone, it is not easy to explain (i think the picture is the best way if someone else make your FCS at your side) ! And it was my first real time without husband or someone else !!

      Fransyung : Oh it was this thread ! i was thinking a thread for only for FCS (msd and SD size both XD ) ! thx !
       
    11. Melicat : You are welcome to play with my dolls anytime... ^^ Hehehhe...

      I finally paid off my Kanu. D: Now the suspense in waiting begins... >.<

      To ease the pain, here's my baby boys. ^^

    12. Melicat - Oh that's perfect, thanks! I'm going to go look now. :3

      Fransyung - Who is the handsome boy on the left? I like them both, but wow, that one's eyes. :aheartbea
       
    13. MacaronTea : The one on the left (green eyes) is Noel, my Ryoya Konoe. The other one (violet eyes) is Tsuyoshi, my Tsuyoshi Maki (go figure, I'm too lazy to create a character!). XD
       
    14. I bought a reisner head on Y!J. So now I'm waiting. and he needs a body.
       
    15. Congratulations~!!! ^^ Which Reisner did you buy?

      My Akira is finally here... ^^ Still waiting for a bunch of others... (_ _)

       
    16. Aishiteru: Ah~ Now fun >w< I can't wait to see your girl when she comes home!

      Macaron: No problem at all, happy shopping ^^

      Frans: *_* Your Ryoya is so handsome! I love his eye makeup! Hello Noel~ (^w^)/

      I'm still waiting on Piccolo and trying not to get myself into trouble by buying anyone else until Dolpa XD;
       
    17. >_< Double post, sorry~
       

    18. Thank you... He's my first love for Volks dolls... ^^

      I only have 2 more to wait for... only one is Volks, the other is Soom. XD
      I'm not buying anymore until I see what Volks have for the DP and Cruise!
       
    19. Fransyung - OOoo! Mmmm....Noel *adds to serious contemplation list*

      MeliCat
      - This was perfect as I ended up finding a great wig, so now to just to wait on it's arrival. :3


      So my SD13 Mimi just arrived! :D She has indeed turned out to the be the project doll I thought she might be though. She needs quiet a bit of work: a very through cleaning, restrung as she is super SUPER tight (I can't even see under the head cap well enough to see any inside markings) and her brow's and lips redone. I would say her entire faceup but I really don't want to loose her gorgeous lashes so I'm trying to figure out how to save them.

      I'm trying to figure out her age, but I guess I had better move that over to the general Volks thread so as to stay on topic. ^_^;
       
    20. Congrats, MacaronTea... :D Mimi is a gorgeous choice... I can't wait to see her done! ^^ You can always pluck the eyelashes off using a bit of heat (hairdryer maybe), then reattach them after you finished changing her face up... ^^
       
    21. Frans: Noel started the whole family of Volks, huh? Now he has plenty of Volks Brothers to play with, haha! I don't know if I could have so many Volks, just one is so much heavier than my dolls!

      Macaron She's here! I'll meet you over at the general thread to gossip about her, haha. :3

      I'm trying to decide if my Piccolo needs a lavender wig. He's a small boy, it's okay to have soft colored hair, isn't it? >w<
       
    22. Fransyung - Hot air! Good idea, I'll give that a go. :3

      MeliCat
      - Come over and help me be unconfused! O.o See my post there to know what's going on.

      I love soft colored hair and keep pondering one of the pale lavender or misty blue wigs from Leeke. One of these days I am going to cave in, I just know it! You should go for it if it keeps calling to you. ;)
       
    23. Melicat : Yes... Noel is such a bad boy for inviting so many Volks home. >.> But at least he makes me work harder to gain funds. LOL.

      I don't mind soft-colored hairs on boys. ^^ Sometimes my boys use blonde and white hairs, too. I can't wait to see your Piccolo... The one from Huis Ten Bosch is one of my fave molds... ^^
       
    24. I can add another deary to the waiting on list now. >.> Paid off my DD Sakura Matou...so now the wait is on. *drops more money into DD Saber Lily*

      A lot of people seem to have gotten their dearies in since I was gone! Congrats! 8D
       
    25. Congrats, Kat... :D That's good to hear!
       
    26. Yay~ Will you do an arrival thread, Kat? I'm still waiting on Piccolo, I expect him late this month or early next month. Yay for a Christmas baby~
       
    27. Thank you! 83

      I have no clue if I will....maybe? XD It really matters on if I decide to deal with my horrible camera or not. :P (It's old...so old...) Well you won him via lottery from one of the dealers, right? I'm expecting my DDS Akira some time in the middle of November... I wanted to hold back on DD Sakura till she got here, but oh well. No double box opening for me. xD
       
    28. You know how time slows down as you approach the speed of light. I think the same thing happens when waiting for a doll. The closer you get to it's estimated arrival time, the slower everything else seems to get.
       
    29. Agreed, Clouded!
       
    30. Waiting is the worst part of the process. xD What I hate is when they are sitting in your post office being sorted or something. Makes you want to go down there and steal them from them. >.>
       
    31. I'm waiting for a Date Masamune, so I keep hoping we'll here something from Volks USA soon. The funny thing is I won through Kerby Lane, so I'll have to wait for Volks USA to send the doll to KL, just so they can then send it back to Los Angeles where I am.
       
    32. XD That's a wee bit silly! I won my girl from KL as well. I'm like "send her out of CA just so you can send her back to CA!"

      But in your case that's even funnier.
       
    33. Hehe, no kidding. I could be at the store in about 45 minutes. But I'm so thankful for KL. Without them there's no way I could have gotten the doll...at least not without having to pay extra for a service, and the exchange rate.
       
    34. Srsly. I'm thankful that they exist! I was actually not lucky enough to even get the chance to enter for DDS Akira, but apparently someone dropped their order, because they responded to my WTB. I was prepared to pay scalpers prices! D: So I'm really happy that they do exist. I've also won things from them in the past. >w<
       
    35. waiting for SDGrG Lorina...shipped. estimated arrival 15th of Nov. really really impatient. everyone or anyone here (it looks like its been a few days since anyone posted), what/who are you waiting on? talk to me and we'll be impatient together ^_^
       
    36. I'm waiting on DDS Akira from KL. They should ship out next week, hopefully! That's according to their FB page.
       
    37. Waiting for DD Saber Alter ver 2 (paid off already *phew*). Going to be a looong wait, but gives me time to prepare for my first DD. :D
       
    38. Waiting for SDGrB Date Masamune from KL.
       
    39. i try not to think about any doll i'm waiting for until it ships otherwise i just drive myself crazy. so i do my best to forget entirely but now that she's shipped i'm like "stupid holiday, stupid weekend - pass already."
      as is i'm already planning my next doll purchase >.<

      @Nyxiss long wait ey? how are you going to prepare? gonna make/buy some clothes, wigs etc.?
       
    40. "out for delivery.":o ok i have no plans for the day so this means imma sit on my front steps 'til ups gets here.
       
    41. Oh, congrats on your doll being send!

      I am getting impatient, my doll is scheduled to arrive during last ten days of the month. This hopefully means next week! :D
       
    42. Sorry for double post, but I just received my girl! :D She was supposed to be here at the end of this month (last 10 days or so), so I was totally surprised when I came back to the dorm and seen my nameplate moved to the 'package awaiting collection' place :lol:
      Now I just have to clean up my room a bit and I can open the box! :D
       
    43. My Lorina and Date are in the mail to me right now. I think I'm going to die of excitement waiting for Tuesday. Maybemaybemaybe they get on a fast truck and are here by Saturday? :D

      Congrats to all the others that have been shipped and much patience to those who are waiting.
       
    44. Congrats Daris! :3 I can't wait to see the BO!

      I hope your kiddos reach you soon, InvisibleWings!

      ~
      I sort of forgot to post in here that my DD Sakura arrived! XD Box Opening Link Here
      If I'm not mistaken my DDS Akira should have been shipped out... I am unsure if KL has shipped her out yet or not. (I was told they were shipping Akira's yesterday/today)
       
    45. Congrats to all new arrivals. XDDD Post photos?
       
    46. USPS is playing a game with me...;____; On Monday they attempted to delivery DDS Akira, but because I wasn't there to sign they left a notice (Work always getting in the way!) and so I inquired for a redelivery for the next day. (I didn't have to be there to acquire her.) Apparently, they decided to take the shipping slip, but not leave her (or my Nendoroid Homura! D: ) and now I'm sort of wondering...where is my Akira...? (And homu homu)

      @Daris
      She's gorgeous! :3 Congrats~~~~
       
    47. Kat: Drat! >.< She (they?) Should be at the post office associated with where your address falls on their route. If you call around to USPS offices in your zipcode you might be able to track them down. If you can't pick up in person at least make sure they redeliver Friday. USPS likes to return packages to sender, they've done it to me with only 2 deliver attempts. Good luck!
       
    48. After quite a lot of calls I was able to track her down! D: For some reason she got routed to a different town and then got sent back? O.o'' It was really confusing and I am unsure why that all happened, but she's home and freakin' adorable!

      I'd have pics, but ironically my camera died the same day I brought home my new DSLR (which sadly I don't know how to use so we'll have to wait on photos...) Thank you for the help Meli! <3
       
    49. USPS likes to not even deliver my packages, like today with the Obsidius head I'm waiting for. It went out for delivery, but the mail man never brought it to my door let alone left me a slip. I hope my Date comes in next Tuesday when I'll be home from work.
       
    50. Congratulations, Kat!! XD Finally...!!
       
    51. @CloudedMind
      Yeaaaah, USPS was weird. They were planning on sending it back to KL...and they had only tried to deliver it once! D: I hope so too~ <3 My friend sent me a few pictures of her Date, so pretty >w<

      @Fran
      Yes! Finally! Thank you~ <3 I have her all done up in the Kitty Magician outfit >w< So cute. I totally wrapped her in plastic wrap though. xD I'm gonna be playing with my camera to get the hang of it (I've never owned a DSLR...) and hopefully I'll get some shots of her this weekend. ^^
       
    52. What brand of DSLR? I only own a Nikon, but my friends all use Canon... ^^ They say Canon is the easiest, but I find Nikon very easy... XDDD
       
    53. I got a Canon. ^^ EOS Rebel T2i. I've been told that both can be easy to use mattering on the model. Luckily, during the weekend I'll get some training from friends. XD
       
    54. Yay!!! XD Go, Kat! Don't forget pictures! XDDDD And "your friends" dollies too!
       
    55. I haven't been in this thread in a long time, but I'm eagerly waiting for both SDGr Date and YoSD Piccolo! These will be my last new dolls in a long while, so I'm going to enjoy their homecoming.
       
    56. Congratulations, sweetie. ;D I just received a Piccolo myself this week and he is so adorable!

      I can't wait to see everyone's new arrivals!
       
    57. Congrats Daniel.

      @Gunter-It just annoys me that I now have to wait until Friday to pick it up. Thankfully I have Friday off as well.
       
    58. Kat: I'm glad everything turned out fine and your very welcome! I can't wait to see your new girl, I should keep better track of your meetups out there so I can stop by one some time and see you. <3

      I have a Canon as well, you'll get the hang of it, DSLRs are just testy in general. My Piccolo should be here on Saturday via FedEx, I'm all ready for him! >w< I haven't had a fullset doll in years, I'm a little excited to get everything in one box, haha!
